Lakeshore Wedding Stationery

Back in February, I posted a collection of lakeshore-themed wedding save-the-dates that I designed for a client. A couple months ago, I finished the rest of their wedding stationery collection by designing and printing everything else including:

- An invitation (a two-page "packet" attached with a dark green brad that included a schedule of events at their casual park wedding celebration as well as several recommendations for hotel and camping accommodations)
- Two sets of reply cards (one intended for guests who were only invited to Saturday's big event, and another intended for out-of-town family and friends who were also invited to a dinner and temple service the night before and a brunch the Sunday morning after) 
- The extra invitation for the Friday and Sunday events (which was slipped into the envelopes of only some guests)
- Matching Thank You notes

and even:

- Adhesive name tags for all guests to wear at the Saturday and Sunday events (which I'll be including in another blog post at some future date). :)






All stationery items were printed in light blue (the background color of each piece), dark blue, and green. For the invitation and reply card envelopes, I used the same dark blue that I used on the save-the-dates, but chose a "Euro-flap" design (a more formal triangular seal instead of a rectangular seal).





Each invitation envelope and reply card envelope were addressed by adhering white rectangular labels, which I printed on my computer.







The informal wording of the invitation (which reads like a letter), the fun blue and green color scheme, and the easily readable sans-serif font all helped to give this stationery set a casual, outdoorsy feel that perfectly fit the vibe of this couple's wedding celebration. :)
